Gran nodded slowly and said: "You are right, but the Hand of the Elements said that it was you who destroyed Pompeii. (Please remember this when reading the novel)"
"I said it was made by the hands of the elements. Who do you believe?"
"Probably, I will believe you, regardless of whether you have evidence or not." Gran's answer surprised Salin.
"Because I know the style of the Hand of Elements very well." Gran added.
"Then who do you recognize more?" Salin asked.
"Destroying cities and killing civilians is always bad. Even so, I understand."
"So, Devil's Horn will still support the Elemental Hand?"
"Let's not talk about support. Devil's Horn is at sea and still needs support on land. What can a small island alone do?"
"Just capture the city and let the Hand of the Elements become history." Saleen provoked directly.
"Large-scale magic amplifier." Gran replied with one word, which made Salin unable to continue.
The magic amplifier refined by the teacher was only a small one, but Salin felt unable to fight against it. What is the concept of a large magic amplifier? When he went to Holy Rock City, Emperor Chanak rang the magic bell for his daughter, allowing Salin to advance.
The power of the Devil's Horn is definitely weaker than that of the Elemental Hand, and the Elemental Hand controls large magic amplifiers, which makes it almost impossible for the Devil's Horn to replace the Elemental Hand. It's just that the hand of elements is weaker at sea, and I don't want to waste any energy on Devil's Corner.
Devil's Corner and Sreig Island are also related. When necessary, both parties will work together to fight against the Hand of the Elements. Large magic amplifiers are powerful, but difficult to move. During the layout, there will be many weapons, which must not be brought to the battleship.
Therefore, the Devil's Horn cannot reach the shore, and the Elemental Hand cannot enter the controlled area into the sea.
"Salin, I heard that you have a close relationship with Srig Island." Gran suddenly said this.
"Yes, my teacher is the mage from Sreig Island."
"It must be Master Jason, a person I admire very much." Granddao.
"Well, the teacher is a great mage." Salin replied.
"Salin, if you return to Srig Island, we may not be able to cooperate."
Only then did Salin understand what Gran meant. Gran wanted to control Srig Island. If the two islands were united more thoroughly, and with the power of the Metatrin Kingdom, it would not be impossible to fight against the hand of the elements. Possible things.
"Sorry, when I left, the teacher had left all his rights on Srig Island, and I don't want to go back." Salin directly rejected Gran's proposal, and said: "This is the mage's promise, and it will never change. .”
"So, Salin, can you provide me with metal ore so that I can go back and deliver the mission?" Gran's words were very jumpy, but Salin understood the context.
He shook his head and said, "Why, I need to know the reason."
"Have you ever heard of an iron wall?" Gran asked.
"No." Salin shook his head. He was not very knowledgeable, and most of his knowledge was not about equipment.
"You have seen the fortress on Sreig Island, right?"
Saleen nodded. The edge of the island of Srig Island was a vertical city wall. Its majesty was not inferior to that of the Abyss King City.
"Devil's Horn wants to build a fortress stronger than Srig Island to fight against the Yunliu people. The copper wall and the iron wall are magical buildings from an alien plane. The entire island will be wrapped in a metal fortress, no matter how powerful the enemy is. , and difficult to capture.”
Salin thought for a while and said: "No matter how strong the fortress is, it can be captured. I don't know what the iron wall you are talking about is, but I'm afraid it is the blueprint that humans captured when they conquered the alien plane. Being able to capture the blueprints shows that in the past, humans Conquered the copper and iron walls."
"That's right, but at the beginning, the most powerful human beings were at level 18. Not to mention iron walls, even crystal walls could be penetrated. But now on the Mels continent, the strongest people are only at level 12."
Saleen thought to himself, there is a thirteenth-level guy locked up in my elemental magic tower.
Gran sighed and said: "Salin, among the Yunliu people, there are three most ferocious Dukes who cannot be controlled by the Yunliu royal family. One of them, the Iron-Blooded Duke, has now captured Lianyun City. I am coming here this time. , it’s still a long way around.”
"The Iron-Blooded Grand Duke is an interesting person, at least more interesting than the Elemental Hand." Salin did not listen to the temptation. For him, the Iron-Blooded Grand Duke was really more acceptable. Although the two sides were hostile, there was no inevitable outcome. It is necessary to distinguish between life and death. Alchemy City will definitely not allow itself to promote the belief in the goddess, even temporarily.
The goddess is resurrected, and the Alchemy City will suffer the same consequences. Regardless of whether the goddess dies again, it will have an impact on Alchemy City's prestige, and may even cause Alchemy City's status to plummet.
Gran suspected that this Salin was completely different from the intelligence collected before. In today's conversation, Salin almost refused to give in. In the past, Salin always left room for negotiation with others.
He didn't know that Salin was stimulated by his teacher when he went to the Abyss King's City this time, and decided to be brave and diligent and use less external means. He didn't want to do this kind of negotiation and compromise.
Since the conflict with the Hand of the Elements cannot be resolved, let's face it openly and be enemies.
There will be action soon in Daliang City, and the Hand of Elements will definitely not be willing to withdraw. But there is an issue of integrity here. Once Daliang City and Alchemy City have signed a contract, they cannot go back on it.
So Salin wants Alchemy City to regret it. He has secretly decided to go to the Iron-Blooded Duke to see if he can give Alchemy City a heavy blow.
Alchemy City is too dangerous. Even allies have to give up or even sacrifice themselves when there is no need. In Salin's eyes, it would be best to eliminate such an organization as soon as possible.
"Salin, what if Devil's Horn works alone with Metatrin?"
"alone?"
"Yes, the teacher gave me the right to choose in this matter. If we are working together alone, put aside the issue of the Hand of Elements, and you don't have to go to the Iron-Blooded Duke."
"For what? Gran, I don't lack anything here. I have soldiers, mages, magic cores, and minerals. I don't even lack food. I can feed my country for decades. These dozens of Years, I don’t have to plant a seed. My country has tens of millions of people, why should I cooperate with Devil’s Horns?”
"This time I came here to buy metal. I didn't bring a gold coin or a magic core. I brought this thing." Gran said, taking out a wooden box and placing it on the table.
Salin waved, and the wooden black box slid in front of him. The Eye of Elements glanced around and found that this wooden box did not have any magic traps and was not dangerous.
Saleen handed it to Nailis and asked Nailis to open it.
Nailisi handed the box to a demon next to her. The demon opened the box, and the golden light instantly illuminated the entire hall.
Saleen saw a soft metal fragment. The metal fragment had muscle texture, trembling slightly and emitting a golden brilliance.
Saleen has also seen "liquid" metal, but this fragment is a kind of metal between the "liquid" state and the solid state. Even if it is just a fragment, the energy contained in it exceeds anything Saleen has ever seen. A magic core of level 12 or lower.
"What kind of metal is this?" Salin looked at this thing in surprise.
"I have collected all the heart fragments and devil's horns of the Puppet God, but they cannot be put together. I want to use all the fragments to exchange for ore for 600 ships. It's the kind of ship at the port. It definitely doesn't need any space equipment. ." Gran said to Salin.
Saleen smiled and said, "I don't have that much ore."
"The waters in the far north were invaded by Metatrin City's warships. I know that there are dozens of islands, and the ore on them can be mined directly from the ground without digging mines."
"Haha, Devil's Horn's inquiry is quite clear." Salin's tone was solemn.
"I am sincere." Gran spread his hands, pointing to the box in Salin's hand and said: "This is the first deposit. You only need to allow my ship to go to an island to mine, and promise to mine from the extreme northern waters. Safety of the route to Metatrin.”
"It seems that the heart of the Puppet God is of greater value."
"No, this thing is refined by humans after all, and those ores cannot be transformed by Devil's Horn out of thin air. Do you know how much ore is in 600 ships? Each large merchant ship can hold 100,000 cubic meters. s material."
Saleen thought to himself, if I agree to you, the ore you want cannot be solved by just one island. At least in terms of variety, these ores involve more than twenty islands. These islands located near the frozen sea are rich in minerals, and Salin has already regarded them as his own.
I'm afraid the Devil's Horn has been coveted for a long time. If I can't control it, these islands will be taken away.
"Gran, give me three days and I will reply to you. How about it? I want to discuss this matter with the teacher. Read a book." Salin tried to shirk, but did not return the heart fragment of the Puppet God to Gran. I finally got a deposit.
"Then I'll wait another three days." Seeing Salin collect the deposit, Gran stood up and left with a smile. As long as Salin eats this thing and knows the coordinates of those islands, it will be too easy to seize those mineral veins in the future.
Devil's Horn's navy may not be weaker than that of the Metatrin Kingdom. Greed is, after all, a sin that cannot be erased from the human heart!
Seeing Gran leading his mages away, Saleen sneered and said to Nailis: "The Winged Skeleton is back and the ancient battleship is back. Go to the Frozen Sea and wait. When you see the flying battleship at Devil's Horn, Just destroy it with all your strength!”
"Master, isn't this good?" Although Nailis said this, her expression was very excited. The master finally had ruthless means and was no longer as hesitant as before.
"Why is it bad? I think this Devil's Horn is just as dirty as the Elemental Hand. They are just trying to deceive me about the coordinates of the island, and then want to seize my mineral veins. I let them get nothing this time .”
"But, Master, you don't want this?" Nailis asked, pointing to the wooden box in Salin's hand.
